Dancing
dancing as an expression dancing with your feelings for love and lost
being one with the music, is cringe.
Having fun is cringe
Being loud is cringe
Singing is cringe
Talking to loud is cringe
We have collectively decided that expressing is cringe
Is rare
Is outcast
Is atypical
Is more acceptable if one’s high
Or drunk, but cute drunk
Not the drunk that someone can film you and get you canceled
You can dance if you’re hot
Definition in our capitalism world is being:
Skinny
White
Masculine or feminine (can’t have both)
And being rebellious
like having a little drug
THEN YOU CAN DANCE
The need for getting undressed as oneself has been erased
But having madness
Letting your actions kill you
And your emotions drown you
Is living
IS DANCING
So many socially accepted artist accord
That we have to feel and express
But the trick is that being ordinary kills it
Has become a rule that one can be unique,
if a public is watching
Exotic, if being followed
Unconventional, if having talent AND contacts
But FUCK IT
I want to dance
I want to scream
I want to laugh
To get as drunk as I want
To share my thoughts
My projects
My art
Without the anxiety that comes along with being called cringe
Writing this have made me realized
That I actually care
And I’m MAD
I’m frustrated
AHHHHHHHHH – I scream out loud
Fuck it, I’m going dancing.
